Wall E is such a fantastic movie that we expected the game to be just as cute, just as fun. Steering the little guy from start to finish of each level, working his way round simple obstacles and moving walkways from a 3D overhead viewpoint was fun - for a short while.
Our 5 yr old found it quick to understand and completed the first couple of levels within ten minutes. It was nice to find a game that was not heavily centered around reading a lot of initial text too. As each level got a little harder but was essentially the same type of game play, her frustration grew and her interest wandered off. Ok, so the character does switch from Wall-E to Eve but this hardly makes for exciting and varied long lasting play. She has attempted it a ... Read More:

As a fan of puzzle games, and in partcular the first Touchmaster, I was very keen to get my hands on this game when it was released. When I first played it, I just didn't like it at all. However, I have persevered, and now find myself strangely addicted ! As other reviewers have said, the main downside is the lack of the high score table, as this too was a feature I liked with the first Touchmaster, as it made you always want another go, to see of you could edge your way up the scoreboard. However, overall, I am glad I purchased this game, as it has given me many hours of enjoyment.

I bought two of these sports packs when I bought the Wii, but have found it irritating to put them on the controller each time you want to play a game and they add NOTHING to the experience. The Wii controller in it's rubber casing with the wrist strap is tactile and easy to hold, whereas the fussing required to screw on these accessories only holds up the game and doesn't help aim/wack/hit at all. Wish I hadn't wasted my money.

I bought this for my daughter for her birthday because of the great reviews but we both hate it, If you turn off your machine without saving some Mole comes up next time you play and abuses you making you repeat things like "i'm dumb" and has you going through pages and pages of text telling you off. When we moved into our first town there were neighbours there who were bitchy and cocky. We've only been playing it for a short while but we found nothing appealing about this game at all and would not recommend it to anyone. I also had a problem with the sound it's so low I couldn't hear the fish bite unless I had total silence in the room.

This game features 9 courses of three holes, each course being themed - wild west, prehistoric, spooky etc. And each course has a trickshot hole (hole in one), and adventure hole, and a challenge hole. Complete all three for par or better and you will be awarded a new putter themed to the course you completed. You can also collect coins which you can spend in the pro shop for themed hats, golf balls etc.
Also hidden on some courses are minigames including ghost shooting, egg collecting and drum beating.
Controls are simple - you aim then waggle the wiimote to increase the power of your shot.
This isn't quite as varied as the original Carnival game, but there is enough variey to ensure many happy hours playing ... Read More:

This mat is a very good one, particularly because of the slight cushioning it has. This helps your feet not to hurt when doing a longer session of Wii Fit, although when barefoot I noticed my feet stick to the mat a little, but maybe that's because it's new. This saves your arms too, especially when you're doing yoga positions or muscle workouts where you rest your forearms on the board, before; yowch! Now; nothing but comfort :)
